Background
In the related art, for a terrestrial network, a terminal mainly performs cell reselection based on an S criterion and an R criterion.
With the development of 5G networks, non-terrestrial networks (Non-TERRESTRIAL NETWORKS, NTN) were introduced. For NTN networks, the cell radius is large, the terminal is at the center or edge of the cell, its reference signal received power (REFERENCE SIGNAL RECEIVED power, RSRP) or reference signal received quality (REFERENCE SIGNAL RECEIVED quality, RSRQ) difference is small, and the large cell radius results in a large cell overlap area. Thus, when a terminal moves to cause channel fading (e.g., occlusion), cell reselection based on the S-criterion and the R-criterion may result in the terminal making cell reselection back and forth between two cells, and if cell reselection is made based on the S-criterion and the R-criterion, it is difficult to configure reasonable cell reselection parameters.

It should be understood that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the specific technology and specific device configuration adopted by the network device are not limited.
Further, a Terminal referred to in the present disclosure may also be referred to as a Terminal device, a User Equipment (UE), a Mobile Station (MS), a Mobile Terminal (MT), or the like, and may be a device that provides voice and/or data connectivity to a User, for example, a handheld device, an in-vehicle device, or the like that has a wireless connection function. Currently, some examples of terminals are: a smart Phone (Mobile Phone), a pocket computer (Pocket Personal Computer, PPC), a palm computer, a Personal digital assistant (Personal DIGITAL ASSISTANT, PDA), a notebook computer, a tablet computer, a wearable device, or a vehicle-mounted device, or the like. In addition, in the case of a vehicle networking (V2X) communication system, the terminal device may also be an in-vehicle device. It should be understood that the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the specific technology and specific device configuration adopted by the terminal.
The terminal may perform cell selection or reselection during communication with the network device. The embodiment of the disclosure is mainly applicable to a process of selecting or reselecting a cell. In the related art, S criteria and R criteria are involved for cell selection or reselection.
Where the S criterion mainly refers to Srxlev >0 and square >0. Where Srxlev is the cell selection level and square is the cell selection quality. The terminal selects or reselects a cell that needs to meet the S criterion.
Further, for the same frequency measurement of the terminal, if the serving cell satisfies: srxlev > SIntraSearchP and square > SIntraSearchQ, the terminal may choose not to measure co-frequency neighbor cells. Wherein sintraSearchP is the RSRP signal level threshold for initiating on-channel measurements, and sintraSearchQ is the RSRQ signal quality threshold for initiating on-channel measurements.
Wherein, the R criterion mainly refers to:
Rs=Qmeas,s+Qhyst–Qoffsettemp,Rn=Qmeas,n-Qoffset-Qoffsettemp
Wherein Rs is the R value of a serving cell, rn is the R value of a neighbor cell, qmeas, s is the RSRP measured value of the serving cell, qmeas, n is the RSRP measured value of the neighbor cell, qhyst is the cell reselection hysteresis value, qoffsettemp is the temporary offset value; qoffset is an offset value. The protocol specifications Qmeas, qoffset and Qoffsettemp are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1
The above-described manner of cell reselection based on the S criterion and the R criterion is mainly applicable to terrestrial networks. But with the development of communication technology, NTN networks were introduced. The network characteristics for NTN networks are large cell radius. For NTN networks with large cell radius, the terminal is at the center or edge of the cell, its RSRP or RSRQ difference is small, and the large cell radius results in a large cell overlap area. Thus, when a terminal moves to cause channel fading (e.g., occlusion), cell reselection based on the S-criterion and the R-criterion may result in the terminal making cell reselection back and forth between two cells, and if cell reselection is made based on the S-criterion and the R-criterion, it is difficult to configure reasonable cell reselection parameters.
Therefore, for the NTN network, due to the network characteristics, the cell reselection mode based on the S criterion and the R criterion cannot well solve the problem encountered by the terminal when the NTN network performs cell selection/reselection.
In view of this, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a cell reselection method, where a network device provides reference location information of a cell to a terminal, where the reference location information is used to determine a reference distance of the cell. The reference distance represents a distance that the cell can provide good network service. When the actual distance between the terminal and the center of the cell is smaller than the reference distance, the cell can provide good network service for the terminal. A cell providing good network service may be understood as a cell signal quality above a specified signal quality threshold. The reference distance provided by the network is typically smaller than the actual coverage distance of the cell, which is characterized by the cell radius. When the terminal performs cell reselection, the terminal performs cell reselection according to the reference distance of the cell and the actual distance between the terminal and the center of the cell, and can perform cell reselection by combining the distance condition of the terminal and the cell, so that the terminal is applicable to cell reselection of an NTN network with a large cell radius.
Fig. 2 is a flow chart illustrating a method of cell reselection according to an exemplary embodiment, including the following steps as shown in fig. 2. The cell reselection method shown in fig. 2 may be applied to a terminal, and of course, may also be applied to other devices that may perform the following related methods.
In step S11, a reference distance of the cell is acquired, and an actual distance of the terminal from the center of the cell is determined.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the cell corresponding to the acquired reference distance and the actual distance may be a serving cell of the terminal, or may be a neighboring cell of the terminal, or may be understood as a candidate cell included in a candidate list for performing cell reselection.
The reference distance may be determined by cell reference location information provided to the terminal by the NTN network. Wherein the reference location information of the cell may be defined by the network device by a system broadcast message. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the reference location information of the cell is mainly used to determine the reference distance of the cell, and the reference location information of the cell and the reference distance of the cell are sometimes used interchangeably, but those skilled in the art will understand the meaning.
In step S12, cell reselection is performed according to the reference distance of the cell and the actual distance of the terminal from the center of the cell.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, when the terminal performs cell reselection, the terminal performs cell reselection according to the reference distance of the cell and the actual distance between the terminal and the center of the cell, so as to perform cell reselection by combining the distance condition of the terminal and the cell, so as to be suitable for cell reselection of an NTN network with a large cell radius.
Fig. 3 is a flow chart illustrating a method of cell reselection, as shown in fig. 3, according to an exemplary embodiment, including the following steps. The cell reselection method shown in fig. 3 may be applied to a network device, and of course, may also be applied to other devices that may perform the following related methods.
In step S21, a reference distance of the cell is transmitted, and the reference distance is used for the terminal to reselect the cell according to the reference distance and the actual distance between the terminal and the center of the cell.
In one example, the network device provides the reference distance of the cell through a system broadcast message. And the terminal acquires the reference distance of the cell according to the system broadcast message of the service cell and/or the neighbor cell.
In another example, the actual distance between the terminal and the center of the cell may be determined by the terminal according to the actual location of the terminal and the actual location information of the cell, or may be determined by the network device according to the actual location of the terminal and the actual location information of the cell.
When determining according to the actual position of the terminal and the actual position information of the cell, the terminal determines the position information of the terminal and acquires the cell position information provided by the network equipment. Wherein the cell location information provided by the network device may be determined by ephemeris information (network location information of the cell) included in the system broadcast message. The network device sends cell location information to the terminal. The terminal acquires the cell position information, and determines the actual distance between the terminal and the center of the cell according to the position information of the terminal and the cell position information.
When the network equipment determines according to the actual position of the terminal and the actual position information of the cell, the terminal determines the position information of the terminal and sends the position information of the terminal to the network equipment. The terminal may report the location information of the terminal to the network device according to the measurement of the terminal, such as the report of the terminal and the measurement value related to the location. The network device obtains the location information of the terminal, and determines the actual distance between the terminal and the center of the cell according to the location information of the terminal and the location information (ephemeris information) of the cell. The network device obtains the position information of the terminal and can report and determine the position information of the terminal according to the measurement of the terminal. For example, the network device calculates the location information of the terminal according to the measurement value reported by the terminal and related to the location. After the network equipment determines the actual distance between the terminal and the cell center, the network equipment sends the determined actual distance between the terminal and the cell center to the terminal. The terminal obtains the actual distance between the terminal and the cell center, which is determined by the network equipment according to the position information of the terminal and the cell position information, so as to determine the actual distance between the terminal and the cell center.
The cell reselection method according to the above embodiment is described below in connection with practical applications.
For convenience of description in the embodiment of the present disclosure, dref is used to represent the reference distance of the cell, and Dmeasure represents the actual distance between the terminal and the center of the cell.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, when cell reselection is performed according to two parameters of Dref and Dmeasure, a measurement condition that the terminal does not start the measurement of the co-frequency neighbor cell can be determined according to Dref and Dmeasure. In an example, after determining Dref of the serving cell and Dmeasure of the terminal and the center of the serving cell, the terminal may choose not to measure the co-frequency neighbor cell when Srxlev > sintrasetchp and square > sintrasetchq, and Dref > Dmeasure. That is, in response to the serving cell of the terminal satisfying Srxlev > SIntraSearchP, and square > SIntraSearchQ, and Dref > Dmeasure, the terminal may choose not to make measurements on co-frequency neighbor cells.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when performing cell reselection according to two parameters of Dref and Dmeasure, a condition that needs to be met by a cell obtained by performing cell reselection may be determined according to Dref and Dmeasure. In an example, for example, a cell reselection according to Dref and Dmeasure satisfies: dref > Dmeasure. Further, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the cell obtained by performing cell reselection needs to satisfy the S criterion, that is, the cell obtained by performing cell reselection according to Dref and Dmeasure needs to satisfy Srxlev >0, and square >0, and Dref > Dmeasure.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the cell performing cell reselection according to Dref and Dmeasure may be understood as a candidate cell included in a candidate list performing cell reselection according to S criteria, where the candidate cell may include a serving cell of a terminal or may include a neighbor cell of the terminal. The target cell obtained by cell reselection according to Dref and Dmeasure can be understood as one of the cells satisfying the S criterion.
It is further understood that the criteria involved in cell reselection by Dref > Dmeasure in embodiments of the present disclosure that Srxlev >0 and Squal >0 are satisfied may be a newly defined S criteria. The newly defined S criteria may be:
Srxlev >0 and square >0 and D >0.
Wherein d=dref-Dmeasure. Dmeasure is the distance between the terminal and the center of the target cell, dref is the reference distance of the target cell, srxlex is the target cell selection level, and square is the target cell selection quality. It will be appreciated that the cell obtained by cell reselection according to Dref and Dmeasure in the embodiments of the present disclosure needs to satisfy the newly defined S criterion.
It is further understood that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the cell obtained by performing cell reselection according to Dref and Dmeasure may be a serving cell before the terminal performs cell reselection, or may be a neighbor cell of the terminal.
In one implementation, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, after cell reselection according to the existing S criterion and R criterion, cell reselection may be performed by combining Dref and Dmeasure.
Fig. 4 shows a schematic flow chart of cell reselection according to Dref and Dmeasure shown in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to fig. 4, the method comprises the following steps.
In step S31, the terminal determines R values of a plurality of cells including neighbor cells and serving cells according to an R criterion of cell reselection.
In step S32, in response to the existence of the neighbor cell with the R value higher than the R value of the serving cell and the neighbor cell meeting the S criterion of cell reselection, the terminal selects the neighbor cell with the Dref not less than Dmeasure from the neighbor cells with the R value higher than the R value of the serving cell.
The terminal needs to combine Dref and Dmeasure to determine whether to reselect to the neighbor cell or not. For example, the terminal selects a neighbor cell having Dref. Gtoreq. Dmeasure from among neighbor cells having R values higher than that of the serving cell.
When the terminal selects the neighbor cell with Dref more than or equal to Dmeasure from the neighbor cells with R value higher than the R value of the serving cell, whether the neighbor cell is selected as a reselected cell can be determined according to whether the neighbor cell with Dref more than or equal to Dmeasure exists in the neighbor cells with R value higher than the R value of the serving cell.
In step S33a, in response to the existence of the neighbor cell with Dref not less than Dmeasure in the neighbor cells with R value higher than the R value of the serving cell, selecting the neighbor cell with the largest R value from the neighbor cells with Dref not less than Dmeasure as the reselected cell.
In step S33b, in response to the absence of a neighbor cell with Dref being greater than or equal to Dmeasure in a neighbor cell with R value higher than that of the serving cell, cell reselection is performed according to Dref and Dmeasure of the serving cell.
In one example, when cell reselection is performed according to Dref and Dmeasure of the serving cell, the cell is camped on the serving cell in response to the actual distance of Dref of the serving cell being greater than or equal to Dmeasure. And responding to Dref < Dmeasure of the serving cell, and selecting the neighbor cell with the largest R value from neighbor cells with R values higher than the R value of the serving cell as a reselected cell.
In an exemplary embodiment, the terminal ranks the R values of the plurality of cells according to an R criterion. If the R value of N adjacent cells is higher than that of the serving cell, P cells meeting Dref is more than or equal to Dmeasure are selected from the N adjacent cells. And selecting the cell with the largest R value from the P cells, and if P is more than 0, reselecting the selected cell with the largest R value by the terminal. If p=0 (i.e. no neighbor cell satisfies Dref. Gtoreq Dmeasure at this time), if the serving cell satisfies Dref. Gtoreq Dmeasure, the terminal still resides in the serving cell and does not perform cell reselection. If the serving cell does not meet Dref is larger than or equal to Dmeasure (Dref < Dmeasure), the terminal reselects to the cell with the largest R value in the N cells.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the method for reselecting the cell can be used for reselecting the neighbor cell when the R value of the neighbor cell is larger than the service cell and the reference distance of the neighbor cell is larger than or equal to the actual distance. Further, it is also possible to implement camping on the serving cell if the serving cell meets the distance requirement in response to the neighbor cell not meeting the distance requirement between Dref and Dmeasure. And in response to the neighbor cells not meeting the distance requirement between Dref and Dmeasure and the serving cell also not meeting the distance requirement, camping on the neighbor cell with high R value.
In another embodiment, the terminal may perform cell reselection according to a newly defined S criterion.
Fig. 5 shows a schematic flow chart of cell reselection according to Dref and Dmeasure shown in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to fig. 5, the method comprises the following steps.
In step S41, the terminal selects a cell satisfying the newly defined S criterion according to the newly defined S criterion (Srxlev >0 and square >0 and D > 0).
In step S42, R values of a plurality of cells are determined according to a cell reselection R criterion among the selected cells satisfying the newly defined S criterion.
In step S43, in response to the determined neighbor cell R value being higher than the serving cell R value, the neighbor cell with the largest R value is selected as the reselected cell among the neighbor cells with R values higher than the serving cell R value.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, when the terminal performs cell reselection according to Dref and Dmeasure, dref and Dmeasure are applied to neighbor cell measurement, and the S criterion and the R criterion can be applied to NTN network cell reselection with a large cell radius. Selecting a cell satisfying Dref > Dmeasure can avoid the terminal from reselecting the cell back and forth between the two cells.
The cell reselection method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure is also suitable for the interaction process of the terminal and the network equipment. In one example, the network device defines Dref by a system broadcast message. The terminal acquires Dref of each cell from a system broadcast message of a serving cell and/or a neighboring cell, and acquires ephemeris information (location information of the cell) from the system broadcast message. The terminal determines its location, e.g. its own location from GPS, in combination with ephemeris information obtained from the network device to determine Dmeasure its location with the cell center. When the terminal performs cell selection or reselection, selecting a plurality of cells meeting the newly defined S criteria related in the scheme, applying R criteria to the selected cells, reselecting the terminal to the cell with the largest R value, and if the cell with the largest R value is the current service cell, not performing cell reselection by the terminal, and still residing in the current cell. Or when the terminal performs cell selection or reselection, selecting a plurality of cells meeting the existing S criterion, applying R criterion to the selected cells, and then performing cell reselection by combining Dref and Dmeasure.

According to the same conception, the embodiment of the disclosure also provides a cell reselection device.
